So, I'm working on my homebrew campaign and I'm trying to come up with names for all of the shops, however, I'm having a bit of trouble. When I first started I was using a random name generator but, for the life of me I can't find it anymore and I feel stuck. Does anyone have a good name generator they use? Or would be willing to offer suggestions? Right now I'm looking for ways to come up with interesting fantasy store names. Let me know your thoughts guys! Thanks again!
They're specialized, and niche enough with hundreds of different generators that you can "dial in" on exactly the sound & feel of the terms you want.
Pretty much everything in my homebrew campaign world has been named by one variant of these or another ( or been tweaked by me if nothing that came out sounded just right ).

Ah, 2018. Simpler times. Anyway, the OP has not posted in the forums for over a year (about 6 months after this thread died), I don't think they need more suggestions.
Leonard's luxury Leatherworking Smith's Clothiers (A funny one our DM put in) Tailor's Smith (The store next door to Smith's in the above town) Dirty Goblin Shop of Wonderful Stuffs (discount magic shop)
Or just click the button on one of the above generators, I guess. I personally try to have fun with shop names.

Just make it up, throw some stuff in there from real life too - makes them easier to remember.

Or seek inspiration from reality.
Get 'n' go

I'm surprised at how quickly I ran out of inspiration... But you get the idea. (I hope)
NecroMart, Prayers R’ Us, Gavin’s Generally General Goods, Frostburn Forge.... that’s all I got (the first two I saw somewhere else :>)
